Back to memories

A scattering of memories that I experienced during a stage of my life, including events that were deposited in my memory, whether I experienced them or watched them around me, attended their events, and read the feelings of those who lived them.
Through these memories, the most important stage was the period of the War of Attrition in 1969, which preceded the 1973 war, which I lived and lived through. There were words and feelings surging in our chests during the long days that we lived under the bombardment of the Danes during the stage of attrition of the enemy who was superior to us in aviation, and the Thunderbolt Forces demonstrated during this period and until... The 1973 war carried out 72 suicide operations behind enemy lines, which greatly contributed to the armed forces regaining self-confidence after defeat, and during which a new phase took place, which is the phase of confrontation or active defense, in which the Israeli forces suffered the largest number of losses... with the participation of the naval forces, artillery, and aviation. It is a stage of steadfastness and training to meet the enemy in the 1973 war and defeat him. These words were an expression of what was in the heart and wanted to be released, perhaps a recording of an important stage in our lives and the life of an entire generation during the sixties and beyond. The new generations know nothing about it except its name, even though we lived it with sincerity and dedication. Between duty and our civilian life, which passed through us like the passage of clouds, and between them are moments of contemplation of humanity, its behavior, and the events after and during this stage, it has become for us an image in which colors and shapes speak about the feelings and sentiments of those who lived this period and beyond, in an attempt to piece together what remains of our civilian life.
